1 THE EMERGENCY SANTA CLAUS MYSTERY (PREVIEW PDF) The Emergency Santa Claus Mystery is a free mystery entertainment for children (and adults) which takes place over the period December 14 th to December 24 th. Santa Claus and his reindeer have unfortunately suffered an accident while on a practice sleigh flight! Christmas will have to be cancelled unless a replacement can be found! Various applicants offer themselves for the vacancy. Applicants are gradually eliminated over the days until on Christmas Eve it is revealed who will be the Emergency Santa, what method of transport they will be using to deliver the presents, and what type of food and drink they have requested to be waiting for them at the bottom of the fireplace. This preview PDF contains the items for Dec 14 th to Dec 17 th. The full PDF, containing all the items, can be obtained for 0.00 from the merrymurder website at: The components that are revealed each day are as follows: Dec 14 th A copy of the Merrymurder News telling of Santa s accident and Mrs Christmas s fear that Christmas will have to be cancelled if a replacement cannot be found. An appeal by the Merrymurder News for replacement Santa applicants to offer their services overnight. Dec 15 th A Merrymurder News supplement revealing the six most promising applicants who have offered their services. These applicants personal statements and the transport method that each applicant has proposed for delivering the presents. Dec 16 th Elimination Grids showing all applicants, all transport methods, all potential fireplace foods and all potential fireplace drinks. An optional sweepstake form in case members of the participating household wish to enjoy the excitement of an Emergency Santa Sweepstake over the coming eight days. Dec 17 th Snowflake Crossword Puzzle which (like all the following puzzles), once correctly solved will result in some applicants and items being eliminated. Dec 18 th Christmas Dinner Word Search Puzzle Dec 19 th Feed the Birds Maze Puzzle Dec 20 th Christmas Cake Mix Puzzle Dec 21 st Prediction in the Stars Puzzle Dec 22 nd Sleigh Ride around the World Puzzle Dec 23 rd The Cost of Christmas Maths Puzzle Dec 24 th Christmas Cards Word Jig Puzzle

2 Each new puzzle provides a web link so that participants can check they made the correct eliminations the previous day. And a web link is provided on Dec 24 th so that after solving the Christmas Cards Word Jig, participants can verify that they have got the correct solution to the entire mystery. To make the beginning of the mystery more intriguing, I suggest that on Dec 14 th you pin up the Merrymurder News item, and then refuse to answer any questions about what it refers to. Then on the 15 th pin up the news supplement and again remain quiet. This will build up the children s interest and excitement. I hope you and your family and friends enjoy it. Best wishes and Merry Christmas, Tim Morrell PS If you like this mystery, please go to: and use the share button to share it with your Facebook friends. Thank you.
